The conference will take place in Oslo from the 24th to the 27th of June 2025. It is jointly organized as the 18th Conference of the International Society for Ecological Economics (ISEE) and the 11th International Degrowth Conference.
The main theme is: "Building socially just postgrowth futures - linking theory and action".
The conference programme will include plenary sessions and parallel sessions. The parallel sessions include both regular abstract sessions and special sessions.
The organizers of the conference strive to create an inspiring event with far-reaching impacts beyond academia. The conference, and the "Beyond the Conference" initiatives, will be organized in collaboration with policymakers, activists, NGOs, and others. They also aim to minimize the environmental impacts of the conference.
